Back from Sea World~ reached there about 11+ and we went to watch the dolphin show which was at 11.45. on the way, i saw the Dog Tag machine! its exactly the same as the one in Movie World. i wish the pirate guy was there.... he's just so funny. anyways the dolphins were amaaaaaaaaaazing. its like they can do anything if you just give them food. the performace was great. i'll upload allllll the pics on the last day, i think. we headed for the sting rays after the dolphin show and had a look at them. kinda cool, they're of all sizes, from tiny to gigantic. walked down to the shark bay and saw different kinds of fish. there were some in a school, some of a unique colour and the sharks.... oh the sharks... they're not like the tiny ones in singapore. they are GIGANTIC. there was a pregnant one too, that made it EXTRA-GIGANTIC. then left for the next show, Waterski WipeOut. on the way there, i saw a helicopter lifting off. wanted to take a picture but was too late. i waited for a while, hoping that it'll come back soon but to no avail. i sadly walked towards BFG and then i saw a room, and in the room, there was a helicopter! even though it wasn't lifting off, its still better than nothing, right? snapped a few shots of it and left, half delighted. the Waterski WipeOut! there, they did a lot of cool stunts. yet again, you'll know when i upload the pics. after that, i separated with sis and BFG cos they were hungry while i wasn't, and went with housemates. first we went to the aquarium. nothing much there. didn't have the camera with me so didnt get any pics. roller coaster time!!! there are two roller coasters there. Corkscrew and Jet Rescue. Movie World's Superman Escape was sooo much better. Corkscrew was just turning round and round 360 degrees and Jet Rescue was just going at a fast speed, 74km/h for 55 seconds and 11 metres above the ground. haha i saw a water bottle which said that. and for both rides, i didn't hold the handles at all. cos i wanted to say cheese to the camera but i didn't know where it was. so i just held the 'cheese' pose throughout both of the rides. and we so happened to be lucky enough to be at the first seat for both rides. for Corkscrew, my head was knocking the headrest a lot. for Jet Rescue, cos i wasn't holding on the handles, my back was swaying here and there. good thing i'm still young, back won't hurt. cos the design of Jet Rescue is different from others. its like a jet ski each seat. the thing that holds you to the seat and make sure you don't fall off is holding your waist only. you're supposed to hold the handles. but apparently i didn't, so did housemate(sort of... he doesn't live with us but he comes to our house very often), and his back hurt after that. hahaha. anyways, met sis and BFG after that and went to sting rays again, since it was feeding session. but i didn't feed them. cos it was expensive and i wanted to feed the penguins instead. so i walked around the pond, touched a few of the sting rays, if you want to know what it felt like, it was slimy. and i had to wait for a while cos they seem to be scared of me =.=". washed hands after touching them but still smelled fishy. penguin time! went there but realised we weren't able to feed them like sting rays T.T. probably cos they're dangerous? i dunno. and the way they walked was really cute. just like in Happy Feet. if you watched you'll know, if you haven't, you'll have to wait for me to upload the pics. polar bear!!! was soooo big. it yawned and i saw the teeth. soooo big and sharp. headed for Fish Detectives Sea Lion Show and the same for dolphins, they were really really smart. pics, soon. separated with housemates cos they wanted to go to the beach and we went to watch Planet SOS in 4D. juuuust joking~ we were late for the show, and it was the last one for the day too. so we left for the Bermuda Triangle ride. its a boat-ride. and it was laaaaaaaame. i sat it cos it sounded science-related but what i saw that was... ALIENS?! if you asked me to describe it with one word, it would be 'lame'. sat Jet Rescue again cos sis and BFG have not sat it yet. they didn't sit Corkscrew cos they're afraid that their head will hurt after that. and the place was closing soon. had some two-scoop ice-cream with a funky cone and went to the beach. the sand there is totally different from singapore's. its very very fine, very very tiny, very very soft. but it was getting dark already. so we decided to come another time and headed to sunnybank to eat(FYI thats where i ate the steak the other day). it was quite a long journey. sis and i slept in the car, and my ankles hurt when i woke up. cos its a two-door car and the seat in front is always at half of my feet. and when i sleep i keep turning my legs. so it hurt after that, sad case huh, have to live with it during every car ride. had vietnam food for dinner and finally, headed home.overall, i think Movie World was better. because of the ride Superman Escape. aaand other reasons which i can't think of now.that's all. byeee~
